I will be the master of Xuande

Chapter 36 A Great Event Together!

Ever since Duan Jiong's death, Dong Zhuo had lost one of his greatest reliance in the court, not only him, but almost all Liangzhou people who served as high-ranking generals in all counties of Bingzhou seemed to have lost their reliance for a while.

In this society, the gentry who have no roots at the top have a very difficult life, let alone the Liangzhou warriors.

And judging from the current situation, Yuan Kui didn't seem to have the intention of promoting Dong Zhuo quickly. Yuan Situ seemed to be quite wary of this "five-surname house slave" in his heart, and wanted to discuss it after careful inspection.

Dong Zhuo didn't have time for Yuan Kai to conduct a character survey on him, and his character couldn't stand the survey.

He is almost 50 years old, who knows how old he is?How can he compare with those young men in their twenties and thirties, he can't afford it.

That's why Dong Zhuo was so anxious. He was so anxious that even the dream of Jinyan building a nest had to be rigidly linked to his official career. He was so anxious that Liu Jian sent a letter from the east, and he would also contact him with Jinyan. together.

Dong Shijun really wanted to be promoted and was stunned.

But now, when he saw the letter written by Lu Qian to him about going out of the fortress together, his mind became more alive.

If I don't point to the old man of the Yuan family, is he destined not to be two thousand stones?
Pooh!Your surname Yuan looks down on this old man, but this old man doesn’t look down on you!

Duan Jiong is dead, and the Liangzhou warriors have no leader. Does this old man have no chance to replace Duan Jiong?
In this world, everything depends on whether you want to compete or not!
"Hehe, Mr. Lu's letter to the old man said that the person who found out about Tan Shihuai's recent situation is you?" Dong Zhuo looked at Liu Jian with a smile.

Liu Jian responded emotionally, "Exactly."

"Okay, let me tell the old man about the details."

Without delay, Liu Jian made a general report to Dong Zhuo about the matter.

Of course, Liu Jian didn't give it in vain, and some bragging elements were added to it, even Dong Zhuo couldn't tell the truth from the fake for a while.

After speaking, Liu Jian began to secretly observe Dong Zhuo's expression.

He didn't look anywhere else but Dong Zhuo's eyes.

Dong Zhuo was expressionless at the moment. After hearing the news, he was not particularly interested.

It’s just that for some reason, he has been playing with the slips in his hand, like a cat playing with a fur ball, which is obviously a boring thing, but it’s not enough, and I don’t know why the slips will interest him so much.

But Liu Jian could vaguely see the hidden excitement in Dong Zhuo's eyes.

A person's expression may lie, but the eyes never.

People can deliberately conceal facial expressions and body movements, but it is difficult for someone to have a way to change the state of their eyes.

In this way, Liu Jian probably has a plan in mind.

He could conclude that Dong Zhuo was motivated, but he still had some scruples.

Don't rush, take your time.

"This matter is of great importance, and the old man has to think it over carefully. You go back and report to Duke Lu, and ask him to wait for news from the old man."

Finally, Dong Zhuo came to such a conclusion.

Hehe, test me?Trifle!
Liu Jian smiled very calmly: "Uncle Fang is free, let the last official leave."

After finishing speaking, he saluted Dong Zhuo and turned around to leave.

As Liu Jian walked, he counted in his heart in a low voice.

"Three numbers, who's grandson...one, two, three!"

"Let's go slowly!"

Dong Zhuo's voice came from behind Liu Jian.

Liu Jian stopped, raised his eyebrows slightly, and smiled.

"What else can Fang Bo order?"

Dong Zhuo threw the slip on the table, got up and looked Liu Jian up and down, and said in surprise: "Just now you said that it is very important for your family to let you come here. Now the old man has not given you an accurate answer. If you go back like this, aren't you afraid that your family's lord will blame you?"

Liu Jian was quite calm: "There is nothing I can do to blame, and neither can I. Besides, my family teacher once said that although Dong Gong is a hero in the world, he is under the control of the rich and powerful in Luoyang. Many things are beyond his control. This is not just me. The only thing that can be changed by the left envoy of Bing Cao is to accept fate."

"Tutor?"

Dong Zhuo looked at him suspiciously: "Who did you learn from?"

"My benevolent teacher, Gan Gong, is currently the post of Shangshu."

"what?"

After saying a word, Dong Zhuo's face suddenly changed.

But then, an idea popped up in his mind that excited him.

Lu Zhi's apprentice came here as a messenger. Could it be that the golden swallow was referring to... really him?

There will be no such coincidence in the world, it must be him!
That is, within a short period of time, Dong Zhuo's expression suddenly changed.

"Oh! It turned out to be a disciple of Shangshu, a student of Gou's Mountain! Why didn't you say it earlier! Why didn't you say it earlier? Sit down! Sit down!"

Liu Jian was not too polite, thanked Fang Bo immediately, and sat down beside Dong Zhuo.

Dong Zhuo rubbed his hands, staring at Liu Jian in front of him with bright eyes, extremely excited.

If he was a little hesitant about whether Liu Jian's identity as 'Jin Yan' was right just now, now he believes it ninety-nine percent.

Not for anything else, just because he is a disciple of Lu Zhi who is popular all over the world!

Celebrities, who are very appealing in this era, even if they are as stubborn as Dong Zhuo, they have to look up a bit.

"Nephew, what the old man said just now, Xiangxier, don't take it to heart. After all, I have a lot of things to worry about when I am the governor of a state. To be honest, I want to deal with this big event of going out to attack Xianbei. only……"

Liu Jian thought in his heart that Dong Zhuo really talked to people, he talked nonsense... so he became a "virtuous nephew" after a while?

He took Dong Zhuo's words: "It's just that Fang Bo has scruples in his heart. He is afraid of offending important people in the court. From now on, his official career will be blocked, and he will never find a chance to be promoted to the two thousand stones, right?"

For people like Dong Zhuo, there is no need to beat around the bush, just bluntly state that they are great!

Xiliang people don't want to play that kind of nonsense, they just like to be straight and straightforward.

No one wants to move forward more than Dong Zhuo!

Beside Dong Zhuo, Dong Min roared angrily: "Ignorant child, don't talk so loudly!"

“哎！莫吵！”

Dong Zhuo waved his hand at Dong Min, signaling him not to talk too much.

"Haha, nephew is young, how can he know my heart?"

Liu Jian said heartily: "What the hell have you done in history? You don't know in your heart. I know!"
For a vicious person like you, it's not difficult to guess what's going on in your heart!Isn't it just your own business, what else can there be?
"Reporting to Uncle Fang, how can the last official know what Uncle Fang is thinking at such a young age? These words were all casually mentioned in the previous letters between my family teacher and me."

Dong Zhuo was shocked when he heard this.

"Nephew, is this true?"

"If what the official said is not true, then dare to ask Uncle Fang, besides the mentor, who else can analyze such matters involving high-ranking officials in the court? Does Uncle Fang think I can?"

Dong Zhuo began to ponder in his heart.

That's right, if Lu Zhi hadn't taught him, where would this kid go to inquire about a certain family at such a young age?It must be what his master and apprentice said in tandem!

In this way, Old Lu is quite concerned about Dong!Ha ha ha ha!
For many years, Dong Zhuo has always had a long-cherished wish in his heart, which is to be recognized and integrated by the Kanto gentry group. Although this wish is almost impossible, he has always buried this idea deeply in his heart.

"Well, since Lu Shangshu can analyze the current situation of the old man, there must be a solution to the impasse that the old man is facing?"

Liu Jian made a salute, and said: "My mentor is a scholar of heaven and man, and has a deep understanding of ancient and modern important affairs. He has his own unique insights, but..."

"Just what?"

"It's just that Dong Zhuo's mentor doesn't know each other well, so I'm afraid that Fang Bo will have doubts in his sudden and in-depth conversation."

Dong Zhuo laughed loudly, patted the table and said boldly: "Nephew, this old man is not a self-proclaimed person. To be honest, this old man has admired Lu Shangshu for a long time, and he just hates not having the chance to meet him! If Lu Shangshu has any thoughts about this old man, You just say it’s okay! This old man will never be afraid of each other!”

"Okay, so let me talk a little bit about it?"

"Nephew try to say it!"

Liu Jian cleared his throat, and said seriously: "Uncle Fang, in fact, you can also understand that my Lord Lu and the county guards asked for orders to go out of the fortress, not for personal gain, but for the country wholeheartedly. Duke Lu and other Qingliu scholars in the court are dedicated to the country, and this time they will definitely go to the court to ask for a fight. Now that the court has lost Duke Duan, His Majesty will fight resolutely in order to prevent the family from becoming powerful! If there is any change in His Majesty, just ask those eunuchs, and How can I object? In my opinion, regardless of whether Fang Bo agrees or not, this matter is bound to happen!"

Dong Zhuo stroked his beard and remained silent.

"It's just that in terms of the pros and cons of the court, only the ministers of the family are unwilling to make major changes, because the current situation is favorable to them. Dare I ask Fang Bo, if you stand wholeheartedly on Yuan Situ's side at this time, the Qingliu scholars in the court How will you treat it? Cai Bojie was exiled to Wuyuan County back then, and there were many people who murdered him. If Dong Gong hadn't protected him, Cai Zhonglang would have died in Jiuquan long ago. My opinion has changed slightly, if you follow Yuan's will now, if you can't get things done, I am afraid that His Majesty will not bear hatred for Yuan, but will hate you... After all, hating you is much better than hating Yuan."

"Hahahaha~~!" Dong Zhuo laughed heartily: "Speaking clearly! Continue!"

"Besides, a real man was born between heaven and earth, how can he be depressed for a long time? Fang Bo has been in the position of governor for six years, so he must have some understanding? If he doesn't take this step today, Fang Bo is destined to be in a cage." The sparrow will always be trapped and imprisoned by others, but if this step is taken, Fang Bo will be a goshawk soaring in the sky once things are done. For Yuan, the things that feed the sparrow and the eagle are the same Is it?"

Dong Zhuo was stunned when he heard this.

After a long while, Fang heard him muttering: "Jin Yan, you are indeed the old man's Jin Yan."

"What?" Liu Jian frowned.

"Nephew, do you have a swallow's nest on the eaves of your house? Where was it built?"

"what?"

Facing Dong Zhuo's weird question, Liu Jian couldn't react for a while.

After a while, Fang heard him reply in embarrassment: "Back to Fang Bo, I really didn't pay attention to this."

"Oh!" Dong Zhuo sighed regretfully, and then continued:
"Okay! Liu Deran, I remember you! Okay! It really is a hero who came from a young age! Lu Shangshu's disciple is really good. You go back and tell your family Lu Taishou that if you want to go out of the fortress and merge with the states, there will be no objections. The old man will play Luoyang together with him at that time! Everyone, prepare your weapons and fight against Waihu!"

Hearing this, Liu Jian breathed a sigh of relief.

Dong Zhuo's reputation is not good, and his actions are vicious, but in all honesty, he is indeed a sensible person, and he is also a daring master, and he is more vigorous and resolute in his actions.

"That's it, thank you Fang Bo, and the last official will leave."

"Forgive me not far away, hurry back to Zhuojun for business!"

……

When I was young, after Liu Jian left, Dong Min hurriedly asked Dong Zhuo: "Brother, how did you accept him so easily? This is not a trivial matter!"

Dong Zhuo heaved a long sigh, and said with emotion: "This child, it's in the heart of this old man... A man was born between heaven and earth, how can he live in depression for a long time?"

"At this moment, the old man, even if they stand in line with the Yuan family, they will look down on the old man even more, and feel that the old man is completely under control, but if the old man and the people in Youzhou jointly appeal to the emperor to send troops out of the fortress, what do you say? How will the Yuan family react to this old man?"

Dong Min opened his mouth and said, "Doesn't Yuan Kai have to hate elder brother to death?"

"No!"

Dong Zhuo waved his hand and said: "Old man Yuan Kai is also an extraordinary person. If this expedition can succeed, the person he hates is definitely not the old man, but himself!"

"He would feel that he had misjudged himself in the past, and that's why at the critical moment, he let the emperor and all the Qingliu, using this old man to make things happen! His big event was delayed!"

Dong Min patted his forehead suddenly: "I understand, brother means that if this is the case, from now on, the old thief Yuan Kai will not deliberately limit and humiliate brother, on the contrary, he will be kind to brother to show his generosity, Bring brother back to his camp again?"

"Hahahaha, third brother, you are finally clear!"

……

……

About two hours later, Liu Jian walked out of the governor's mansion and met Liu, Guan, Zhang, Jian Yong and others who were waiting outside.

"Brother, how are you doing?"

Liu Bei waited anxiously outside, and he seemed to let go of his heart after seeing Liu Jian.

"It's close to ten, just like I thought, Duan Jiong died, and the Liangzhou warriors have no leader. Dong Zhuo, as an important figure of the Liangzhou warriors, has served two terms as the governor of Bingzhou. The itching is unbearable, the aristocratic families in the capital can't trap him!"

Liu Bei breathed a sigh of relief after hearing this, and then he hurriedly asked, "But you stayed in his mansion for two full hours, so what did Dong Zhuo talk to?"

Liu Jian explained roughly: "Dong Zhuo asked me how I deduced that Tan Shihuai was seriously ill at first, and then asked about my background, position, and who I studied under... However, when he When I heard that I was under the tutelage of Lu Jun, my complexion changed immediately, and I offered a seat and invited fruit, and I was quite polite and virtuous."

Hearing this, Zhang Fei hurriedly said, "Could it be that Dong Zhuo also took a fancy to my elder brother's heroic appearance and intended to conquer him? But elder brother is now an old official of Lord Lu."

Liu Jian shook his head: "Don't worry, I don't even count as an old official of Mr. Lu, so how can I have anything to do with Dong Zhuo? Besides, he is a warrior from Liangzhou, how can I join his sect? In my life, only Mr. Lu The title of disciple."

Speaking of this, Liu Jian recalled: "But thinking about it carefully, he did have a faint intention of soliciting just now, and for some reason, he even asked if there is a swallow's nest on the eaves of our house."

Liu Bei was puzzled and said, "Dong Zhuo asked what the eaves of our house are for? Can his house be successful without eaves?"

Jian Yong smiled from the side: "I don't know, maybe people in Liangzhou live in tents, and they have never seen eaves when they came to the Central Plains."

Liu Jian laughed when he heard this.

"Who knows, don't care about him, anyway, if the mission is completed this time, if there is no accident, the matter of going out of the fortress will surely succeed! This time is a great opportunity for us to make contributions. Only by showing prestige in this battle will we have a wider road in the future! "

Zhang Fei grinned and said: "Isn't it just killing people? It's not like I haven't killed people since I followed my brother! It's nothing to worry about."

Liu Jian turned his head to look at Guan Yu: "But before returning to Zhuo County to prepare, we still have to help Changsheng fulfill his wish."

Guan Yu clasped his hands and said: "Brother Liu, since you all have a bright future, you can't afford to go through this muddy water with Guan. If you delay everyone, Guan will be in trouble for the rest of his life!"

When the words fell, Liu Jian, Liu Bei, Zhang Fei, and Jian Yong had already gone to lead the horse together by coincidence.

Liu Jian turned his head and said seriously to Guan Yu: "Longevity, when you move, you think of propriety, and when you act, you think of righteousness, not for profit, not for righteousness! The four of us share the same loyalty with you, why do you have to worry about it?"

"When you act, you mean..."

Guan Yu muttered a sentence, then cupped his hands and said, "Okay! If that's the case, Yu will no longer behave like a woman! From now on, Yu will make a life and death oath with Brother Liu and you all, and wait for the hometown. It's a matter of business, Guan Yu's life belongs to Brother Liu! If Brother Liu wants to take it, he can use it anytime he wants!"

Liu Jian laughed happily: "I don't want longevity, I just want you to live well, and work with our brothers to benefit the community, and live and die!"
